His partner says that when he's inviting Friday over to the house during one of the bits where he's talking about the relish tray. I think he repeats the line about the scallions at least twice, possibly three times during the whole piece.

My grandmother called them that, too. Since English wasn't her native language, I always assumed she had made the word up by combining "scallion" and "onion." Everyone else I knew called them scallions. I don't make a distinction between scallions and green onions; they are one and the same.
